Whiplash - Power and Pain

[@kaosmonger73]

What a show! Killer picks and I'm so happy to see that I'm not the only one that worships Holy Terror. Mind Wars is a masterpiece and my favorite thrash metal album ever. ⚡🤘🏻⚡

[@ericrobertson2024]

Metal Church debut, Znowhite - Act Of God,Dark Angel - Darkness Descends and Overkill debut were the albums I listened to most in that era.

[@michaellynch4699]

Most of my favourites have been mentioned but I would add Mortal Sin -Mayhemic Destruction

Bonded By Blood - Exodus Years of Decay - Overkill Persecution Mania - Sodom Pleasure to Kill - Kreator Metal Church - Metal Church (it barely qualifies, but it rules)

[@Hecatecrossways]

For Different reasons Forbidden - Twisted Into Form Kreator - Pleasure to Kill Hallows Eve - Death and Insanity Sabbat - Dreamweaver Nuclear Assault - Game Over

[@speedwaytag3321]

Great discussion guys. I'd go with 1. Holy Moses - The New Machine Of Liechtenstein, 2. Razor - Violent Restitution, 3. Blessed Death - Destined For Extinction, 4. Sacrifice - Forward To Termination, 5. Living Death - World Neurosis. Any of you guys were into these albums/bands?

[@darinmccloskey9906]

Sacrifice - Forward to Termination!! Tremendous album. Definitely in my top 20, maybe higher. Just listened to it a few weeks ago actually.

[@speedwaytag3321]

@@darinmccloskey9906 Awesome album and band. I listened recently too.

[@richbillionair]

Heathen- Breaking the Silence Violence- Eternal Nightmare Exodus- Bonded by blood Kreator- Extreme Aggression Overkill-Feel The Fire

[@luiscardenas930]

The Heathen album is great even if the cover "Set Me Free" of Sweet wasn't included. The guitar player Lee Altus also plays for Exodus.

[@jimmycampbell78]

Obituary? That’s a death metal record.

[@richbillionair]

@@jimmycampbell78 I changed to Overkill Feel the Fire. The reason I thought Obituary was Thrash is the somewhat understandable vocals, not as growly like most death metal.

[@ajgohr7479]

Meliah Rage - Kill to Survive Overkill - Taking Over Deathrow - Deception Ignored Sepultura - Beneath the Remains Voi-Lence - Eternal Nightmare

[@bernardgranite]

Overkill Taking Over

[@rayjones4616]

I never really ventured too far out of the big four and next small group (Death Angel, Exodus, Testament, Metal Church, etc.) of Thrash, but I was close to the epicenter of the Bay Area of Cali., so it was a part of my listening enjoyment. Keep in mind, I've never owned Bonded By Blood or The Legacy nor the great majority of albums on y'all's lists, so my pool is smaller. 1.Testament-Practice What You Preach (with a bullet, in my opinion, the 2nd greatest thrash album ever, behind only Rust In Peace and Chuck Billy has the Greatest Thrash voice of all-time.) 2. Metal Church-The Dark 3. Exodus-Fabulous Disaster 4. Death Angel-Frolic Through The Park 5. Testament-The New Order

[@seanbelcher4486]

Oh I forgot Artillery. By inheritance. It's awesome alvum

[@steelerfreak1977]

@@seanbelcher4486 that’s 1990 but it is indeed an awesome album!

[@ndfnq7811]

Grin is from 1993

[@ShanerVH]

It seems mine are all from 1989 Sepultura Beneath the Remains Kreator Extreme Agression Nuclear Assault Handle With Care Exodus Fabulous Disaster Testament Practice What You Preach So many good thrash in 89 to 90 I can name more but tough, I loved Voivod Nothingface but to me wasn’t thrash , And Forbidden is amazing I had that t shirt from forbidden evil , I bought it when I seen them open for Death Angel in Toronto

[@Cornelius798]

Great podcast. I really enjoyed it 👍👊

[@Gregbaltzer]

Voivod- Killing Technocracy, DBC- Dead Brain Cells, Death Angel-The Ulta Violence, Testament-The Legacy, Exodus-Pleasures of the Flesh. Off the top of my head so that could change though if I factor in Kreator, Sodom, Sacred Reich, Nuclear Assault etc. Too many good albums.

[@fdevlin5932]

That DBC debut album is fantastic. Under-appreciated.

[@SGED392]

Don’t mean to comment again but thought of another: Dr Know : Wreckage in Flesh

[@darinmccloskey9906]

They're more of crossover band but yeah, why not... Dr. Know was a hardcore punk band that gradually went full metal on Wreckage.

[@seanbelcher4486]

Flotsam and jetsam. No place for disgrace

[@SGED392]

Due to not knowing much past the big 4, I have to go with crossover bands. Around 86/87 had a lot of friends way more into thrash then me and the crossover bands were right in with the metal bands Exodus : Bonded by Blood (only metal band) Crumbsuckers : Life of Dreams Corrosion ofConformity:Animosity DRI: Dealing with It Agnostic Front: Cause for Alarm

[@ButchArgus]

Life of Dreams is a killer record. I am woefully behind on crossover. Need to rectify that.

[@darinmccloskey9906]

CoC - Animosity is my fav crossover album of all time.

[@SGED392]

@@ButchArgus yea I had the original vinyls pressing off Combat Core ( I think?) .. I love the warmth of of the cd being directly recorded from the original vinyl ( did they lose the tape?) you can hear the pops and cracks

[@SGED392]

@@darinmccloskey9906 i remember looking in the Death Records catalogue when I purchased Animosity and they had short descriptions of the bands/albums on the label and they described this album as “ SabbathCore”

[@SGED392]

Hey I got one more Dr Know: Wreckage in Flesh .. anybody remember them?

[@Gershom.]

Wargasm’s Why Play Around is in my top 5

[@kylemacneil3477]

My 5 favorite albums that were not mentioned by the panel. 1. Sepultura- Beneath the Remains 2. Overkill- Taking Over 3. Sacred Reich- Ignorance 4. Corrosion of Conformity- Animosity 5. Suicidal Tendencies- Join the Army

[@tombweavers3971]

Great picks from everyone, and definitely got me walking down memory lane. Going to trash shows in the bay area were great beer soaked years. If we were really lucky we'd have time to stop at The Record Vault before going to The Stone to see any number of local bands open for whoever was on tour. Stoked to see the shout out for both the Sodom and Destruction LPs, we played those to death in those daze. My top five: Razor- Violent Restitution, Carnivore- Retaliation, Sacrifice- Forward To Termination, Exodus - Bonded By Blood, and Kublai Kahn- Annihilation. And of course the already mentioned Death Angel, Voivod, Possessed, Whiplash etc. etc. Killer episode to all involved.

Wargasm - Why Play Around ? I haven't seen in the comments.

[@darinmccloskey9906]

Yeah, Wargasm is killer! I mentioned seeing them in '87 with Death Angel, Exodus and Voivod. They were great!

[@macseinchin]

Good discussion - love Celtic Frost, Overkill, Exodus, Nuclear Assault, Voivod, and the English Dogs (check out "Where Legend Began"). Metal Church aren't typically thought of as a Thrash band (more power metal), but there are some thrashy songs on "The Dark" album such as "Psycho". Too bad that the production is a bit too slick for its own good. I also thought Agent Steel were pretty thrashy too, especially "Mad Locust Rising". The 80s was a great decade for Metal.

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

The classic Sweden and Switzerland mixup. An easy way to remember which country is which is if you remember that Switzerland is the country of skiing, chocolate and great metal and Sweden is the country of chocolate, skiing, and great metal. ;)

[@darinmccloskey9906]

It wasn't geographic confusion. The question was whether Celtic Frost was Swiss or Swedish.

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

@@darinmccloskey9906 Yes and we will never fully figure it out. hehe
